Current ranking in France = 4th place
I recently went with my school at the theatre La Scala to see Manon Lescaut, so I'm obviously biased, but I like the name. It has a characteristic French feeling, without being frilly like Michelle.
That being said, the name is not heard very commonly outside of France, so I would use it maybe in the middle. But that is a problem I don't have, as I'm not pregnant, nor close to being pregnant ;D
